Good observation. When Paige said that, it did seem to hit Stan hard and maybe it humanized the whole situation.

Yes, that U2 song was so annoying and so loud when I’d rather be focusing on what was going on. That was way over done.

And Arkady would be passing on that hope to Oleg’s family.

NY Times reviewer also was clear that Philip’s garage performance was “work.” The NYT reviewer is Mike Hale and he said, “Even at the wrong end of a gun, the spies took the upper hand, refusing Stan’s order to lie on the ground. Then Philip went to work. Switching to confession mode — “We had a job to do” — he gave…

Yes, they should have showed us Arkady giving Oleg’s family some hope and at least tell them that Oleg’s mission was successful and they “won” the inner KGB battle and saved Gorby. Stan may get Oleg off for good behavior if he can convince the FBI that Oleg was fighting the bad KGB.

I agree that the Oleg story checking out helped their cause - and should eventually help Oleg’s cause. Still, Stan knows they just killed two FBI agents in Chicago, slashed Sofia and Gennadi in front of their kid and the three security warehouse workers, and the many more including his old partner. Hard to just let…

True, he wasn’t going to gun them down. What else does an officer do in that situation? Shoot out the tires? Call in reinforcements? He could have said I’m not going to shoot you but he could call in their car and track them and eventually take them into custody unless they go down like Bonnie and Clyde. A stun gun or…

Sorry, but Stan got duped again with Philip’s smooth talking and B.S.-ing in the garage. Stan didn’t go for it at first but then for some reason, he folded. I wish you would have gone to EST?!! I can’t believe that didn’t cause him to open fire right then and there.

I don’t buy it that they would never see Henry again, or now Paige. Certainly, Henry would be able to visit Russia in the future, especially with the end of the Cold War.

Somehow I just didn’t buy it that Stan bought it. Why would he after all the lies? I was surprised and dumbfounded when he let them go. I didn’t even think Philip was being genuine. It sounded like he was just taking that tact as the best way out. Elizabeth looked like she knew what he was doing. They even lied about…

Exactly. Stan will realize he needs to help the Jennings and Oleg.

Gabriel saves the day some how. With a car and driver to whisk then away and then safe passage to Cuba and beyond. Maybe Renee is Gabriel’s plant to watch over them and she will help them escape. I’m assuming Gabriel and Renee are on Gorby’s side. But if Renee is on Claudia’s side, then maybe Philip and Elizabeth can…

Oh, that changes that then. No results for them now means something different to me. Duh! Thanks! I couldn’t figure out why there were no results for their common names and a going business.

If only Jackson knew he will end up being a hero as it was his tape that proved that Nesterenko was a good guy after all.

Just go with it Bo.

I’m glad we are finally getting to the reveal and the good stuff, but wish we had at least 2 or 3 more episodes to really flush it all out.

To keep changing the plates as they are on the run?

They won’t try to grab Henry. He’s safe and innocent and will be better off without them. That’s the best they can do for him - leave him out of it, as he has been.

Yes, but the Jennings have done more than info spying. Too many murders to be traded?

Yep, Oleg, Philip, Elizabeth and Stan make a deal and bring peace to the world and they all live happily ever after. It’s possible. But would Philip and Elizabeth be safe back in Russia under Gorby after he cleans out the KGB or would they be always looking over their shoulder?
